Exit Wounds Lyrics

Clouds dark gray

Coming down in sheets, and I could never sleep in

Tidal waves

Wandering the streets, clothes clinging onto me like

Cellophane

Preserving all my insides, an architect at low tide

Night and day

Couldn't tell the difference if I wanted

And driving down through storm

Like exit wounds

Your hands are coming down

In streaks of light

Stand up straight

My legs begin to waver

I'd like to ask a favor

If that's alright

I'm looking for a reason for everybody leaving

And I just might

Follow in their footsteps but

I know I know I know I know

I'm so polite

So I thought I'd let you know before then

And lying on my back

A borrowed mattress

Like a makeshift raft inflated high

As I connect the dots

And pray you're listening

Change around the stars with your reply
